Anita Casavantes Bradford, who heads UC Irvine's Committee on Equity and Inclusion
for Undocumented Students, said she was reassured by Napolitano's statement. “They
are among our most talented, motivated and engaged students,” she said. “They are
an important asset to our university and our communities, and I'm glad that President
Napolitano has shown, through her principled statement and actions, that she also
recognizes the contributions that undocumented young people and their families make
to our state.
